Mending the Rift, Winning Gwen's Complete Devotion
The basement was filled with the pungent smell of Ozone and the earthy odor of concrete dust.
Lynn sat on the only intact hospital bed, his gaze passing over Wanda and Gwen Stacy kneeling at his feet, and landing on the Silver Key that Susan held high. Blue indicator lights flashed rhythmically in the dim ruins, containing top-tier technological heritage that would make even Tony Stark envious.
But he didn't reach out to take it.
Lynn knew very well that for these women driven mad by their obsessions, mere force could only bring them temporary submission. To truly turn them into obedient tools in his hands, he had to crush their dignity before bestowing upon them an irresistible favor.
A slap followed by a treat. This is the most basic rule of animal taming.
"Sizzle--"
Just then, a faint, extremely abrupt crackling sound broke the stillness of the air.
Gwen Stacy, kneeling on the left, suddenly let out a suppressed cry of pain. She instinctively curled up, and large patches of blue-purple mosaic light suddenly appeared on the surface of her originally slender arms. These light spots were like unstable Holographic Projection, flickering wildly between reality and illusion, carrying an eerie feeling of being about to be completely erased.
The repulsive reaction of the Multiverse erupted.
The Earth-1610 has collapsed, and as the core Anchor of that universe, Gwen Stacy's existence in this spacetime was forcibly expelled by the underlying rules of the universe.
"It hurts so much..." Gwen Stacy bit her lip hard, her fingers digging ten deep, bloody scratches into the gravel on the ground. She could feel her cells being torn apart and peeled away little by little by an invisible force.
Wanda knelt to the side, a complex sense of pleasure flashing in her Scarlet eyes, but because of Lynn's warning, she forced back the sneer on her lips and simply watched coldly.
Susan then took the opportunity to raise the key even higher, attempting to prove herself more valuable than the soon-to-disappear Spider-Girl.
"Raise your head." Lynn's cold voice rang out above Gwen Stacy's head.
Gwen Stacy struggled to lift her chin. Half of her face beneath the mask had been lost, and her eyes were filled with extreme fear and despair. She wasn't afraid of death; she was only afraid that she wouldn't even be able to die in Lynn's arms.
"Lynn... I'm going to disappear..." Gwen Stacy's voice was thick with sobs as she reached out her still-flickering right hand, trying to grab Lynn's trouser leg, but it passed right through her the instant it touched him.
Physical collision failed. She was being completely stripped away from this world.
"I didn't make you disappear, so these damned cosmic rules can't take you away."
Lynn stood up, his boots crunching on the broken glass. He walked straight to Gwen Stacy, and without hesitation, his right hand shot out and grabbed Gwen Stacy's neck, which was now trembling.
"Boom!"
A pure, transparent, and Invisible Force Field erupted from Lynn's palm. This Force Field did not spread outwards, but instead transformed into countless Space Stitching Threads a thousand times finer than a human hair, which ruthlessly pierced into the depths of Gwen Stacy's Gene Chain through her pores.
This is the SS -S-rank reward bestowed by the system—top-tier Space Stitching Technique.
Gwen Stacy let out a piercing scream. The excruciating pain of having her soul forcibly sewn shut into her body was ten times more intense than cosmic repulsion. But she didn't struggle; instead, she clung tightly to Lynn's arm with her only remaining left hand, like a drowning person clinging to the last piece of driftwood.
"Susan, activate the Negative Zone frequency in the key, and tune the Baxter Building's Spatial Transmission Node to full power here." Lynn didn't turn around, his tone an unquestionable command. "Wanda, use Chaos Magic to seal off the Reality Dimension of this area, forcibly writing her Life Imprint into the Source Code of this universe."
The two women kneeling on the ground were both stunned.
A flicker of resistance crossed Wanda's eyes; she wished the spider woman clinging to Lynn would die. But when she met Lynn's cold, warning black eyes, her heart clenched.
"Yes..." Wanda gritted her teeth, her hands rapidly forming hand seals. Violent Scarlet Particles shot into the sky, transforming into a massive hemispherical barrier that completely isolated the entire basement from the outside world. The rules of reality, distorted by Chaos Magic, began to be forced to accept Gwen Stacy, this "outcast."
Without the slightest hesitation, Susan crushed the Silver Key's casing and attached the Microchip inside to her temple. Relying on her absolute control over Fantastic Four technology, the Baxter Building Main Control Computer in Manhattan instantly overloaded.
An invisible Negative Zone frequency band spanned half of New York and projected precisely onto Gwen Stacy.
Technology and magic, under Lynn's authoritarian rule, achieved an unprecedented and perfect fusion.
"Ah--!"
Gwen Stacy's body convulsed violently in mid-air. Lynn's invisible sutures, like a large net, with the help of Susan's spatial frequency, forcibly pulled back her dissipating Quantum Light Spots spots; while Wanda's Chaos Magic, like a red-hot branding iron, welded these light spots firmly to the Dimension Foundation of Earth-199999.
High temperatures, magical energy, and the buzzing sound of space tearing apart mingled together.
Lynn's fingers cracked and bled from the excessive Force Field he was exerting, but he didn't even flinch. He looked down at Gwen Stacy, who was struggling in pain, and his voice pierced through the energy storm, striking deep into her soul.
"Your world doesn't want you anymore," Lynn said cruelly and domineeringly, "But I do."
These words were like a heavy hammer blow, completely shattering the last trace of unease and obsession in Gwen Stacy's heart.
The blue-purple flashing frequency is getting slower and slower.
Ten seconds later.
With a muffled "bang," a small shockwave exploded in the air.
Gwen Stacy slammed heavily onto the floor, gasping for breath. The quantum-like light spots on her body completely disappeared, and her previously illusory body regained its warm touch. The temperature of her skin was frighteningly high, but the sense of repulsion that had been lingering in her heart was completely gone.
She survived.
This man forcefully snatched it back from the erasure rules of the Multiverse.
"Lynn..." Gwen Stacy ignored the soreness all over her body and scrambled to Lynn's feet. She ripped off her mask, revealing her delicate face covered in sweat and tears.
She looked up at Lynn's bleeding fingers from saving her, and the morbid possessiveness in her eyes completely transformed into extreme piety and attachment.
"I am yours..." Gwen Stacy pressed her cheek against Lynn's blood-stained palm, like a completely tamed cat, greedily feeling his warmth. "My life, my soul, everything I have... is all yours. Whoever you tell me to kill, I will kill."
Lynn casually ruffled her short blonde hair a couple of times, said nothing, and just glanced coldly to the side.
Susan knelt amidst the rubble, her blue pupils trembling violently.
She witnessed the whole thing.
Reed Richards, hailed as the smartest man on Earth, spent three years and tens of billions of dollars, and could only barely manage to open an extremely unstable portal in Negative Zone.
The man before them used only one hand and a few words.
He perfectly blended magic with cutting-edge Spatial Technology, directly deceiving the fundamental rules of the universe and reshaping a person's Dimension Anchor out of thin air!
This god-like ability, transcending all physical laws, this ultimate domineering power that can turn the world upside down with a flick of the wrist...
Susan felt her breathing become increasingly rapid, an indescribable fervor shooting from her spine to her head. Compared to Lynn, Reed was like a primitive man still playing in the mud! This was the true Deity worthy of her devotion, worthy of her giving everything!
"Lynn..." Susan crawled two steps, ignoring the glass shards on the ground that cut her knees, and picked up the Chip with both hands, its casing crushed.
Her voice trembled with extreme excitement. "I've taken complete control of Baxter Building's defense system. I've completely locked out Reed's access. Just nod your head, and the Fantastic Four's entire arsenal, weapons arsenal, even the Negative Zone Lab... are all your territory now."
Wanda watched Susan's fawning and obsequious behavior, her teeth itching with anger. But having just been reprimanded by Lynn, she could only clench her fists tightly and swallow her rage.
Lynn looked at the sickly infatuation in Susan's eyes, and a satisfied smile finally appeared on her lips.
He extended two fingers and picked up the Chip.
"You just said that Nick Fury is using Mutants?" Lynn toyed with the Chip, his tone casual yet carrying a chilling murderous intent.
"Yes!" Susan nodded quickly, speaking rapidly, "I intercepted Communications of the S.H.I.E.L.D. Remnants. on Reed's Top-Secret Terminal. That old blind Fury has launched a project called ' Blind Spot Program.' He's secretly releasing Mutant Extremists held by the military, trying to muddy the waters and use the Brotherhood of Mutants to drain your energy."
Lynn let out a cold laugh.
As expected of that Nick Fury Nick Fury, even after his trump card was exposed, he still wouldn't give up and actually tried to use a trick of Drive the Tiger to Swallow the Wolf.
"Does he think he can kill me by unleashing a few mad dogs?" Lynn casually tossed the Chip into the air, and a burst of Scarlet Chaos Magic instantly enveloped it, with a massive Data Stream flowing directly into Lynn's brain through the magic circuit.
Countless Top Secret coordinates flashed before Lynn's eyes.
Suddenly, his gaze fixed on one of the Tactical Directive that had just been sent out.
[Target: Stark Industries Partner Factory (Outskirts of New York). Executor: Codename ' Sabretooth '.]
Lynn's face instantly darkened.
That factory was an Underground Money-Laundering Base that he had just taken over yesterday. And the person in charge of security there was Natasha, whom he had just implanted with False Memory and who was willing to risk her life for him.
"You ignorant fool."
Lynn clenched his fist tightly, and the Chip exploded into a cloud of dust in mid-air.
He lowered his head, looking at the three women kneeling on the ground, his eyes as cold as if he were looking at three butcher knives about to be drawn.
"Susan, activate the Highest Access Privileges to the Baxter Building and prepare to receive all my Asset Transfer." Lynn pulled a black trench coat over his shoulders and strode towards the basement exit.
Wanda, Gwen Stacy.
Lynn stopped, turned his head, and unleashed the full force of his anger in his eyes.
"Someone has encroached on our territory."
"Come with me to kill someone."
